They enter this game with a 37-35 record overall and have a home record of 21-17.

The current betting odds have the Diamondbacks listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The D-Backs have been having a great season as they lead the NL West with the best record and they also have one of the best offenses in the league too. They have been playing a lot better lately and will be looking to beat up on a struggling Brewers team that hasn't been playing well in their games lately. The Brewers haven't had a good offense this season either and they are going to struggle to put up runs with Gallen on the mound for the D-Backs. Gallen has been one of their best starters all season as he has 8 wins and hasn't given up many runs in any of his starts. He is coming off another good start in his last one and he will have no problem shutting down the Brewers here who haven't been great on offense lately. Teheran is starting for the Brewers and he has been really good in his starts but as good as he has been pitching, the D-Backs will get to him for some runs and the Brewers just won't have enough offensive power to get through this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Diamondbacks to win this game.
